And the game is underway.... the NFL lines are quite faded, making for a more pleasant looking pitch.... Still see a lot of ruts though...
Mathis got whacked off the ball..... Revs had their first corner.... lots of play in the midfield....
From MLSnet it appears no Lisi. Magee and Woly at forward. Looks like Jolley Leitch and Pope in three man back line. Five mid - Gaven - Mathis - Guevara - Williams - Clark. Jusko not even on the bench.
Metros just got a huge break... almost called for a penalty in our box.... thank the ref for the goal kick call only....
We're playing with 2 1/2 back. We can't control the ball when we get it. They're just going to counterattack us to death.
This is OZ soccer. No defense and a whole lot of people running around. *#*#*#*#ing *#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#.
Who was the guy who said they would put the Revs logo as their avatar a week for every goal noonan scored more than wolyniec? =/
I'm really disappointed with the way Bob over-coached this. We go from ultra-defensive (all season) to ultra-offensive, all at once. Now we're severely *#*#*#*#ed.
great now we get to watch Eddie Pope hoof longballs into the box from the back for the rest of the match...
And were are down 3 - 0 on the goal aggregate.... Now we have to score 3 just to force a tie, provided they stop scorching us... NOONAN!!
We were shafted coming in down two goals. This is a team that has trouble scoring . He had to do something. Better to have tried and failed. Imagine what would be said if they played their usual game when we need at least two goals.
